About FastBucks
FastBucks is one of the best-known providers of short-term loans and corresponding financial services. Friendly, customer service is at the core of what we do. We know we are here to serve our customers, and without them we wouldn't be in business. In 1997, we opened our first store in Dallas, TX. FastBucks was founded by a young entrepreneur who saw a need in his neighborhood for access to quick cash that would be repaid quickly. Because of his determination to help his neighbors and his strong entrepreneurial spirit (which is very much alive throughout the company today), FastBucks is truly an American success story. Our employees have the opportunity to own a portion of the store they work in, so our customers always get the best service in the industry from someone who already owns, or is aspiring to own, a piece of our company.
